Whitechapel. Legion of the Damned and Hellride behind door number 12

Today we have another metallic trio for you. Whitechapel, Hellride and Legion of the Damned are going to vandalize the Wacken Open Air 2013!

Whitechapel is a young death metal band from America. The band was founded in 2006 and has already released 4 albums. They already destroyed some of the other big metal festivals out there and now it’s time for the Wacken Open Air!

Some minimalistic and acoustic metal is always great for chilling at a long festival day. Hellride, founded in 2010 in Germany, plays without drums and distortion. They just use two guitars and their voices to perform cover songs from metal legends and their own songs. In their short history, they already played several festivals and some opening performances for bands like Accept or Ektormorf.

Legion of the Damned are going to perform at the Wacken Open Air for the second time in 2013. The thrash/death metal band was founded in 2004 and played in Wacken in 2006. Since then, a lot of albums were released and the band evolved from a newcomer to a kind of European extreme metal institution.
